Can't enable nginx gzip on Elastic Beanstalk (Php, symfony) - amazon-web-services

Question

I'm facing an issue with AWS Elastic Beanstalk(Php,Symfony) and gzip.
I'm trying to enable Gzip compression but it work only for .svg files with this configuration :
Folder hierarchy
nginx.config
server {
gzip on;
gzip_static on;
gzip_comp_level 6;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_types text/html text/plain text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript image/svg+xml;
gzip_min_length 1400;
}
symfony.config
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
gzip on;
gzip_vary on;
gzip_comp_level 6;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_types text/html text/plain text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript image/svg+xml;
gzip_min_length 1400;
if ($host !~* ^www\.) {
return 301 https://www.$host$request_uri;
}
if ($http_x_forwarded_proto != "https") {
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
}
location ~* \.(?:ico|css|js|gif|jpe?g|png|svg)$ {
expires 30d;
add_header Pragma public;
add_header Cache-Control "public";
gzip_static on;
gzip on;
gzip_comp_level 4;
gzip_types text/html text/plain text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript image/svg+xml;
}
Is there any way to fix it ?

Thanks to Marcin and Julien B it work now.
I changed the nginx directory to .platform/nginx/nginx.conf and get a default nginx config from the beanstalk instance, and set myconfig on it.
nginx.conf
#Elastic Beanstalk Nginx Configuration File
user nginx;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log warn;
pid /var/run/nginx.pid;
worker_processes auto;
worker_rlimit_nofile 65235;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
'$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
'"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';
include conf.d/*.conf;
map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
default "upgrade";
}
server {
listen 80 default_server;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log main;
client_header_timeout 60;
client_body_timeout 60;
keepalive_timeout 60;
#gzip off;
